Now Katla, that’s something to worry about.[/quote]
Yes! I’m surprised at how few people know that there is a relationship between Katla and that other volcano no one can pronounce. I wonder what will happen to the Euro then?
Here’s a better map of our fault zone that I found:

I’ve lived in California all my life (with the exception of a couple of years overseas), and don’t ever remember a series of earthquakes like this. Anyone else?
[/quote]I lived through the San Fernando/Sylmar earthquake.. so I have seen much worse.
It looks like we are ‘ok’ since the fault(s) near us are moving fairly easily. I would worry about the Los Angeles basin. There have been some quakes north of Los Angeles and quakes in the Imperial valley down to Baja. The only part that is not really moving is LA. That means pressure is building up over there. Topping it off, the fault-line takes a turn (more like S-bend) through LA. This means that it doesn’t want to ‘slip’ as easily as where the faultline is straight.[/quote]
The quakes we have been feeling have been on the Elsinore fault (blue line) and not the San Andreas (red line).

The Elsinore runs quite a bit closer to San Diego,in fact passing under Julian. It does look like the aftershocks are traveling Northward. Hopefully it will keep going releasing smaller amounts of energy. Somewhat scary to me is that there is a point where the quakes stop. This could be where a significant amount of energy is being stored up for later.

ParticipantI’ve seen some that will also cool the house. Are there any disadvantages to this? Does it make the heating less efficient? BTW I’d be installing this into a 900 square foot house. I was thinking about doing a single station and then adding more in the future. Does this make sense, or should I do everything at the same time?
